瑜伽論記 9.19

9.19

Regarding “giving light and fresh, clean clothing is the cause of shape and color”: it is said that shape-birth is not the shape of visible color. If it were visible color, then bright color would serve as the cause inducing the fruit of shape and color; therefore we know that shape is merely the shape of the body, because visible color generally acts as its cause, and because they belong to the same fruit cluster; so how could there be any contradiction in taking visible color as the cause inducing shape and color? Hence shape is either shape or visible color.
